Color Tiers

Color Tiers Module

Color Tiers Overview

Compass had added the capabilities of adding multiple service rates to models in the form of color tiers.  These extra service rates will be visible through the process of proposal generation and will calculate into the final cost of the machines.  Limited bookmarks have also been made available for these service rates.  

This new feature is turned on via our module system.  Module Name: “Color Tiers”.  A request will need to be made to Compass support at support@compasscontact.net. 

Administration Setup

An administration will need to go to the Administration>Item Pricing screen and create different tier names via Color Tiers button.

• Clicking on this button will allow the creation of new Color Tier names.  

• After you have created names those names will appear in the Color Tiers tab below.
• To assign color tiers to a model, select the model you want to add the color tiers to and select the service type you want to have assigned to that color tier for that model.  

Solution Configurator

Once you have set the above information for Color Tiers you will see that reflected in Solution Configurator.  

On the Build Solution side, choose a model that has color tiers, as shown above.  After selecting the model, you will see you have some additional options which includes a Step 4.   You will see the Min Volume and the Volume.  The Volume column is a free type area.  You can make any necessary changes in this area.  Final step is to choose Add to Cart, moving it to the Proposed Solution Side.

On the Proposed Solution side, you will see the sub table called “color tiers” where you will see the volume, base, and service rate that you previously selected.  The volume is editable here. Then click to Transfer to Summary.  Currently you will not see any changes within Solution Summary.
